Asbury Park Area Insight

The Asbury Hotel, Baronet outdoor movie theater is a large rooftop area on top of the hotel with amazing views of the Ocean, boardwalk and downtown. The space offers artificial turf with beanbags and a limited amount of chairs...bring your own beach chair if you like! Once the sun goes down, the movie begins...it's magical.

Your entry fee includes a soft drink and popcorn. Beer and wine are available for purchase. You may bring your own snacks, sandwiches as well. Many different genres are shown....the theater shows a movie just about every night from May - September!!

Exciting news! Late last summer Asbury Park partnered with Zagster bikes to offer rentals throughout the city. There are eight locations so this summer you'll be all set to cruise around town or wherever you'd like to go! The bikes are approx $3.00 and hour and they're intended for general public use. The bikes are cruisers with seven gears and lights for safety. Check out their website below for deals.

Did you know that Asbury Park offers lockers on the beach? Shh...it's a great little secret! For a reasonable fee, the lockers are available from late May-October and they're large enough to fit many beach chairs, beach towels, sunscreen and other beach toys! Contact the Department of Public Works for information. Basically submit an application and fee, then wait for a call to learn of availability. Residency is not required.

On the corner of Bangs and Bond is a brand new rental building by Sackman. I'll post photos on my Agent Insight. The building is due to be complete and ready for annual tenants on June 1, 2018. Offered are studio, 1, 2,3 bedroom units. Underground, secure parking is available for an additional monthly fee. The building offers an exercise room, storage, laundry room and an elevator. The building is seven blocks from the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. The neighborhood surrounding 700 Bangs is in the midst of a renaissance. Around the corner is the Kinworth Building...it will be transformed into a boutique hotel with 100 rooms, pool and more. Restaurants are close by, shops and transportation too. If you don't have your own bike, Asbury now has city bikes throughout the downtown, beach and boardwalk areas. Rentals are tight in the area, so act soon.

I have lived here at the Jersey Shore for many years and what impresses me the most is the revival of the Asbury Park Boardwalk. Enjoy it all year long, for the beach, the walk on the boardwalk, the great places to eat and the fantastic emerging night life for all ages. Asbury Park's night life has a lot to offer all ages. Asbury Park; come see the resurgence at the beach.

Beach front property, we got it. Neighborhoods featuring big beach colonials with wrap-around porches, Bungalows with cozy fireplaces, and newly constructed townhouses. Neighborhoods in town are as varied as sea shells on the beach. Tree lined streets seem as if time has stood still from the 1900's, other areas of town are modern and lively infused by the arts. Restaurants - We Got That! Asbury is impacted by the beach and boardwalk all summer long, but there is more to town than sand and surf. Restaurants make Asbury Park a destination. New ventures continue to come, the great ones shine and become part of the fabric.

Our boardwalk has year-round appeal and continues to grow as new and old businesses and merchants create a interesting place to walk and shop. Buildings old and new like Convention Hall, the Paramount and the Carousel building are still being improved while some are already finished and enjoyed. For those with civic ambition or ideas and a wish to be involved in the future development of the city, this is fertile ground for you to work. Asbury is more than just a coastal town in Jersey.If you are looking for an investment or a place to call home, you will find it here. Trains to commute, lakes and parks, high-rises townhouses and apartments: Asbury has it all.
